make no mistake in electing Henry Miller,
of Franklin, to the office of county COM
missioner. Mr.. Miller, while being a ster-
ling, died in the wool, Democrat, is a man
in whom the whole people, regardless of
party, can place unbounded confidence for
honesty and integrity of purpose. Mr..
Miller possesses the qualifications necessary
to make good county commissioner and
for this reason the "Stroller'' opines to the
belief that he will be elected by a rattling
good old Democratic majority.
MIR. STROLLER: You will confer a
special favor to law-abiding citizens of this
town and vicinity by giving notice of the
following in your fayorably accepted Weiss
port letter. Boys and even young men
who should have more respect for others as
well as for themselves. haye formed habit
OF gathering in groups every Sunday even
ing at the canal thoroughfare as well as at
the corner of Biery's Drug Store and Kist-
ler's corner for the purpose of casting in
sulting slurs at passers-by, particularly at
ladies and older persons. Let such UNDER
stand by this notice that shall this be re-
peated they win be severely dealt with ac-
cording to law. 1t will be no longer per-
mtted, arr1.acton will be speedily pushed
in this direction. PEACE.
DEAR STRoLLER:-The Lehighton
baseball umpire makes no profession of be-
ing baseball compendium, much less an
authority on the game, but all impartial
observers of the Lehighton-W Weissport game
must acknowledge that if any club was
specially favored in regard to close decisions
it was the Tycoons. 1t is well known
fact that the members of the Tycoon club
are horribly deficient in the "art' of play
ing ball, and if improvement don't come
faster than 1t has in the past the moon will
wear whiskers before they know aught
about the game. Now, TO satisfy the
chronic growler at your place Twill place
$40 in the hands Of the STROLLER the Ty-
coons to place same amount, and if the
umpire of the Lehighton club don't explain
rule for rule better and more satisfactorily
than any member of the Tycoon club 1 am
willing to forfeit the same. Now, please
put up or shut up. LEHIGHToN.
